Question 1144775
.


In  my opinion, this post is typical provocation.


It is not a Math problem, because the question has no an exact/precise Math meaning.


It does not ask if 32 can be presented as  (-2)^x.


It asks (word-in-word) "Could -2 be <U>used to rewrite</U> . . .  ".



In this form, the answer is "YES" :  32 = -(-2)^5.



Therefore, the post is the kind of provocation.
